Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Formwork (Packagist package getformwork/formwork) versions 2.0.0-beta.1 up to but not including 2.0.0-beta.4 are affected. An attacker with administrator access, or with a privileged account, can submit an invalid user role value that makes the user's data unloadable, causing a 500 error that takes down the entire site and administration panel until the account file is restored by hand. Upgrade to 2.0.0-beta.4, which adds validation for select fields.
